Katie BainLast night 115,000 ravers, kandi kids, bros, babes and other assorted fun lovers turned out for the second evening of Electric Daisy Carnival in Las Vegas. The city-sized electronic music mega-party started at dusk and featured sets by 75 artists including Avicii, Carl Cox, Tiësto, Wolfgang Gartner, Empire of the Sun and Major Lazer. The air temperature was damn near perfect, the crowd was loose but not rowdy, and the light-up art installations, fireworks, parade, stilt performers and carnival rides were all legitimately dazzling.

It was an epic party that went all damn night, straight on 'til morning. By the time the full moon was setting, the sun was rising and Dutch hardstyle producer Headhunterz was closing the Kinetic Field stage, a mainstage area that fits 80,000 people, the festival grounds were a bit of a mess. A rave-ey mess!
